I am a tranner. I am 23. Pictured is me, nearly 8 months into my transition. This is one of the only images I have ever taken of myself that is sans any filters, smoothing, or anything. This is directly from my iPhone camera.
I look like shit. My facial structure is hopeless. I have a huge forehead, a strong jaw, and a squeaky voice that is barely trained.
I feel more disillusioned with my body than I ever have. First and foremost, I absolutely love everything that HRT has done to my body. I love the smooth skin. I love my cute little breasts. I love my thicker thighs. However, let’s be honest; you look at me and tell me I ever have any chance of assimilating.
Should I just cut my hair and live my life as an HRT femboy? I could go back home and live with my family normally. I could find jobs easier. I could find some closeted gay boy to rail me on the weekends.
Let’s be honest too; none of the men that are attracted to me see me as a woman anyway. They all see my as some hyper-fem thing with a penis.
I think that I should just go back to being a bad male and let men fuck me like a girl, but still live my life as a boy. What else am I to do? I am so fucking tired of being looked at with such pity. People in public look at me like a dog that needs to be shot down. I don’t feel like a boy, but I will never be a real girl.
Same Pretty sure that's just a cis woman tho They might be trying to hurt our feelings by larping as a tranny

What should you do? Honestly? Get over yourself. The average person doesn’t spend this much time obsessing over their image. The point of being a tranny is to find your way back to being a normie after a cataclysmic epiphany about yourself, and spiralling into OCD isn’t how you do that.

I can’t

You look like an ugly girl with that weird face. You pass as a girl that likes scat.
Mason Howard
I appreciate this immensely, but just have such a hard time believing it. Sincerely, it feels as if there’s a chemical block in my brain that prevents me from believing shit like this.
I’m not cis. I see all the other replies that say this. I promise. There’s no way everyone saying that isn’t gaslighting me.
Jose Young
why not are you too fucking gay? anyone who dresses like that doesnt have real problems or limitations theyre just useless drains by choice
you look like a weird girl. to me your trans but thats bc im constantly around transwomen and know when someone doesnt necessarily look like a man but looks like a transwoman.
also: why do so many mtfs make that poutibg to the side face does it hide bones? fill the face? move the skin away from the adams apple? what is it? why do so many people do this stupid face its what duck faces were to cis women in 2013
Andrew Wood
Quite honestly, you just look like a weird girl making an ugly face. I wouldn't clock you if I saw you in a college class.

Grow hair out, don’t dye it, dress more conservative(dresses and shit) and you should be fine
Almost all trans girls can believe when they pass, it's okay OP. You are doing great, I promise :)

You are way too in your own head, I recognize it because I have been saying the exact same things as you recently, and I have been in a depressive spiral and gotten even more insecure. I don't think your facial structure is hopeless. You read as female to me. The unfortunate reality is, we're not cis women, and because of that, it is very easy to obsess over aspects of our bodies that we don't like, even if they're tiny problems. Maybe your voice is a concern, but that's something that can be worked on (I know voice training sucks).
the stuff about living as a trans woman as opposed to an hrt femboy is harder, I'm also grappling with that. I hate being seen as someone who is trying and failing to be who I am, but I wouldn't be happy as a guy either. I hope you figure it out

loaded up basket-weaving forum, saw cute girl on homepage, clicked. youre kinda cute
Dylan Russell
oh! thank you!
Justin Powell
Unironically this. I can't really say much bc of the heavy eye liner, dumb face angle, and glasses.
If you want some really feedback outside of your aesthetic choices, all I can say is that I can see a bit of a mustache shadow if I look hard enough. Btw, are you pre or post ffs?
